You were bedridden for 9 months,  it takes time

And a lot of vanilla cupcakes.

This physical therapist is way more optimistic than I.

I'm guessing she also has no sense of smell.

He ordered cakes…plural

That sweat towel, working overtime when Gary gets up!

“Let go.”

[sainte-chapelle]

I don’t care about that Baylen show, stop pushing it TLC

[babyhouseman]

The cakes probably  have inspirational messages. Like You can do it Gary, don't eat me.

I might be the only person watching this show. I feel so alone. 

[Chicklet]

I was sick and accidently watched Baylen. Her family is kind of a mess as is she. I feel sorry for her siblings.

I'd watch that over Sister Wives..

Health care and personal support workers …that is hard work. 

Truth. The women who care for my mother are WONDERFUL. They are so kind and affectionate toward her. My brother is absolutely awestruck. "It takes a special kind of person to do this. And they are all so NICE!" he's always saying. 

[lemoncake]

Other than this, my other guilty trash  tv pleasure is the the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.

Dr. Now had to point out that he can't come to Texas if he can't get out of bed. Gary might be delusional if he needs that said.

You know that movie, Aladdin?  They had a flying carpet.  Why not a flying bed, then?  All you need is to catch a benevolent genie...

I could never! I am a middle school Special Ed teacher. I can take attitude/disrespect from annoying teenagers. I could NEVER deal with what they do. 

[HorrrGoodnight]

Dr Now's eyeballs are organic scales. He will know.

[mmecorday]

Dammit, now I want vanilla cupcakes! What number did he call? 

[Auntie Anxiety]

Poor Gary. He’s such a victim.  Not his fault that in one day he eats enough food for a family of eight.

[Red Bridey]

Of course, he's not making any progress. Why am I not surprised?

[Pepper Mostly]

Jesus, he doesn't even open his blinds, look out the window? 

Is that laptop sitting on a bunch of cake boxes? 

[Chicklet]

I bet he hasn't lost any weight, he kind of looks the same.

I muted the TV after Jeopardy but left Wheel of Fortune on. The Baylen show was on when I changed the channel. I didn't unmute until it was done.

[OoogleEyes]

Mom could put the plate across the room and make him fetch it.

[HorrrGoodnight]

At least he told the truth, he is  doing nothing.

[lemoncake]

Listen Gary, the rule of PT is that if it doesn't hurt, it's not working 

[ams1001]

What is so funny? Dr. Now doesn't sound like he's joking around.

[Hellga]

Nothing between PT?  He truly thinks Dr. Now has a magic wand.

Something tells me he is still eating just like before, maybe just a smidgen.  And I would tell him to get therapy, he is rainbow pony level of delusional.

[Auntie Anxiety]

Dr. Now: Do I amuse you?

We are grasping at straws here. 

[ams1001]

Eating habit update: I just fetched the box of Triscuits.

[HorrrGoodnight]

One munt! Not two munt!

[mk828]

Oh boy.. This doesn't look too promising.

[lemoncake]

How can he lose 100 pounds if there's no baseline?

[Auntie Anxiety]

I like when Dr. Now unleashes the Kraken on these people. They need to see the reality of their situation.

The same way whatshername last week lost 100 pounds?

Oh you mean only in her mind?

Or am I mixing these people up?

His... throat noises when Dr. Now said 'work hard' - I am sure this guy has never done anything hard in his life.  He would retreat into eating at the earliest hints of hardship on the horizon...

[Pepper Mostly]

Dude. You weigh over 700 pounds! Quit eating cake and make an effort! And he just sits there and whines like an eight year old. 

"I'm trying as hard as I can!" Cut Gary lying in bed, staring at the wall. Right. That's effort.

[lemoncake]

I'm putting money no walk in the park at the end

[Auntie Anxiety]

He hasn’t even gotten to the point where he wonders if the scale hasn’t been zeroed out.

She was a liar liar pants on fire 

[babyhouseman]

He should live with the woman who has anxiety since they don't leave the house.

Nope, that's her. She insisted she lost that much before she even got weighed. Then she insisted the scale was wrong.

I love  Triscuits. And Wheat Thins. When I'm Mom sitting I just sit there and eat Wheat Thins like its my job. There is nothing else to eat at her house. I've starting bringing my own snacks over.

Not unless Gary starts defying gravity.

She was let go by the network from the Kids' show, and her show was cancelled.  Kardea Brown is the co-host of the Kids' competition with Duff. 

 

I had too much hope for Gary. He made me hope he was going to actually try, but he isn't going to try. Dr. Now told him the truth, but he'll never make it to Houston.  Dr. Now sending a transport for a weigh in is a nice gesture, but I think he's a lost cause.
